Line thinning by line following
نویسنده
چکیده
A line following algorithm is presented as a means to perform line thinning on elongated figures. The method is faster than conventional thinning algorithms and not as sensitive to noise. It can be useful for other applications also.

A Hierarchical Bayesian Model to Predict Self-Thinning Line for Chinese Fir in Southern China
Self-thinning is a dynamic equilibrium between forest growth and mortality at full site occupancy. Parameters of the self-thinning lines are often confounded by differences across various stand and site conditions. For overcoming the problem of hierarchical and repeated measures, we used hierarchical Bayesian method to estimate the self-thinning line. The results showed that the self-thinning l...
متن کاملSimple and Effective Feature Extraction for Optical Character Recognition*
A new representation method for recognition of handwritten charcters, called LLF (Local Line Fitting), is presented. The method, based on simple geometric operations, is very efficient and yields a relatively low-dimensional and distortion invariant representation. An important feature of the approach is that no preprocessing of the input image is required. A black & white or gray-scale pixel r...
متن کاملA New Algorithm For Line Image Vectorization
In this paper, a new approach which differentiates from the conventional thinning algorithms in vectorizing a raster line image called maximal inscribing circle (MIC) is used. This region-based vectorization algorithm takes the ensemble of pixels within the line segments collectively as legitimate candidates in deciding the vectorized representation. An iterative procedure is outlined and the c...
متن کاملA DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING APPROACH TO CREATING PINs FROM DIGITIZED CONTOURS
DTMs derived from digitized contour lines often suffer from limited quality. The quality can be enhanced by automatically extracting skeleton lines from the contours prior to triangulation and subsequent interpolation. A hybrid set of raster and vector techniques is used for skeleton extraction and TIN generation, including distance transformation, Dirichlet tessellation, thinning, gap filling,...
متن کاملFeature Analysis Using Line Sweep Thinning Algorithm
In this article, we propose a new thinning algorithm based on line sweep operation. A line sweep is a process where the plane figure is divided into parallel slabs by lines passing through certain "events" and items are then processed according to an order of the slabs. Assuming that the contour of the figure to be thinned have been approxiĆ mated by polygons, the "events" are then the vertices...
